I collected and gave away a relatively small amount of wood during snowmaggedon as well. I didn't have any firewood on hand before that event, and the collection was going into the creek bed behind my house with a chainsaw and collecting felled wood. Gave some of it away.
Learned my lesson. Now I have a lot of wood. Enough I could give away a bunch. But if the problem is hundreds (or even dozens) of households, forget about it, not enough wood.
